This case report discusses the Renbök phenomenon observed in an 11-year-old girl who presented with both alopecia areata and psoriasis vulgaris. The patient exhibited multiple hyperpigmented scaly plaques on various parts of her body, including the scalp, trunk, and limbs, while experiencing patchy hair loss on the scalp that was notably free of these plaques.
